Looking towards the terminus of the Pinxton Arm of the Cromford Canal, originally a 3 mile stretch of water which was used to transport Pinxton Porcelain. It has long fallen into disuse but in keeping with the renewed interest in Britain's lost waterways, plans are afoot to restore this whole section.
